Oh my, what a delight!! Francesca Battistelli has just released 'Defender'. This is such a powerful and faith-promoting song! 'Defender' declares that the Lord fights our battles for us. And He prepares a table in the presence of our enemies. This worship anthem brings Exodus 14:14 to life: "The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still." (And let's be honest, being still is so hard to do!!) This is what Francesca Battistelli says about the track: "As a songwriter, I get such joy out of spending my time crafting words and creating melodies that God places on my heart. Yet there are times when I come across a song that just gets to me on a deep, core level. 'Defender' continues to be that song. I hope you can worship and reflect on the God that loves you so endlessly, knows you so fully, and is your great Defender!" Amen!

Some may argue that there is no place on this site for classical Christian works, but I believe that we all, some more than others, can appreciate good classical music. On top of that, the story behind this music is one that many readers will recognize from other stories published on this site. Juan Maria Solare is an Argentinian composer and pianist, now living in Germany, that has shared his music with me before, and he is so talented. The title of his track is an allusion to the Bible: "If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move.” One interpretation is that the inner mountain symbolise those troubles and issues that you can "speak to", i.e. face, and therefore solve. Maybe you can appreciate the works of Hans Zimmer, Gustav Mahler, Edvard Grieg... or maybe this introduction to Juan Maria Solare will cause you to add him to the same list when you are looking for additions to your m

Everybody has personal fights for all kinds of reasons and in all parts of life, such as love, desire and when working towards a goal. Everybody has a goal or something that is worth fighting for, and that is exactly what Zoie's latest single `Fight´ is all about. The single `Fight´ was originally inspired by her boyfriend's goal to complete an Ironman race in August 2019. Zoie wrote this track and dedicated it to her boyfriend as a way to support him with a cheering song, filled with motivational lyrics such as the text "nothing can hold you back" Zoie's track motivates everyone to never give up. Fight for everything that is worth fighting for, and don't let anything take away your focus.

This is the playlist for the New Releases Show of Friday, August 9th. (The last show before our summer break...)

Bryan Jong - Collateral Damage (with background about the track that Bryan doesn't even share during his intro in our show)
(UNIQUE DETAILS ABOUT THE TRACK) Bryan explains: With the name "Collateral Damage" I literally mean the "unintended damage". This translates nicely to the well-known biblical story of Adam and Eve, where Eve takes a bite of the apple. She has caused a lot of unintended damage to humanity. The damage, in this case, is symbolized in my song as the heavy continuous Bass. The synths that enter the track around 1:30 symbolize God / our Savior. When I hear the synths, I start dreaming and am relieved of the daily burden. I have also incorporated a church choir (if you listen carefully, you can hear it), that symbol stands for prayer. So you could argue that this track is a battle between the bass (Unintended damage) and the synths (God / Savior). With this, I hope to have provided enough clarity about my track. I want to thank you again for playing my track in your radio show! Sincerely, Bryan de Jong On Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/1UuXs6YkrUA

Australian producer tyDi’s chill music project Wish I Was returns with an evocative cover of Panic! At The Disco's 'High Hopes', putting a uniquely danceable and emotionally resonant spin on one of today's most exuberant hits. 'High Hopes' is the first single since Wish I Was' inspiring charity single for the Make A Wish Foundation 'Ready To Start'. As tyDi/Wish I Was relates 'This is actually the very first cover that I've ever done in my career, I've always been a huge fan of Panic! At The Disco and 'High Hopes' just really speaks to me. Wish I Was has always been about hopes, ambition and wanting to do the things that we dream of musically. It's always a risky move covering a song because you have to be really careful not to just copy the original song. To put a spin on the song I worked with a female vocalist and made it a lot more downtempo (even though it's somewhat dance). There's something slightly melancho
